25 The community is to rescue the one guilty of manslaughter from the dead person's relative, and they are to return him to the city of refuge to which he had escaped. He must live there until the death of the man who is then High Priest.
26 If the one guilty of manslaughter leaves the city of refuge to which he has escaped
27 and if the dead person's relative finds him and kills him, this act of revenge is not murder.
28 The person guilty of manslaughter must remain in the city of refuge until the death of the High Priest, but after that he may return home.
29 These rules apply to you and your descendants wherever you may live.
30 “Anyone accused of murder may be found guilty and put to death only on the evidence of two or more witnesses; the evidence of one witness is not sufficient to support an accusation of murder.
31 A murderer must be put to death. He cannot escape this penalty by the payment of money.
